Jose Mourinho will spend his 55th birthday taking charge of his 100th game as Manchester United manager on Friday and would have hoped the celebrations could take place somewhere more lavish than Yeovil.
The Somerset town is not exactly famed for its bustling nightlife or luxurious venues but a raucous atmosphere is expected at Huish Park for one of the opening FA Cup ties of the weekend.
Many would consider Mourinho's first 99 games at Old Trafford a mixed bag. He has indeed led United to the League Cup, Europa League and Community Shield but the gap between his side and Pep Guardiola's Manchester City remains enormous.
